(3) After menopause, women are at a greater risk of developing osteoporosis due to the loss of calcium. Weight training increases bone density and workout can be the best defense against osteoporosis.

(4) The day to day work in daily routine life woman requires having functional strength. The best way to develop functional strength is to use unsupported compound and structural movements using free weights, these movements are easily possible in weight training. Doing unsupported compound and structural movements using free weights during weight training engages and strengthening core muscles. Additionally, doing specific core exercises helps in strengthen core muscles around the pelvis, this helps women during pregnancy.

(5) Strength training also helps them fight age related orthopedic degenerative conditions such as arthritis. Weight training not only builds stronger muscles but also builds stronger connective tissues(LIGAMENTS-joins bone to bone and TENDONS-joins muscle to bone)to improve joints stability. It strengthens the entire musculoskeletal system and prevents injuries.

(6) Weight training reduces the risk of diabetes and heart diseases, weight training increases glucose utilization in the body and improve the way to process the sugar inside the body, which may reduce the risk of having diabetes and as for as heart disease is concern, weight training lowers LDL(bad)cholesterol and increasing HDL(good)cholesterol and lowering blood pressure, when cardiovascular exercises added, these benefits are maximized.

(8) There are two sex hormones (estrogen and testosterone) in the body, both are found in males and females in different ratios depending on gender, therefore, men are men due to the dominance of testosterone hormone and females are females due to the dominance of estrogen hormone. Testosterone is a primary anabolic muscle building hormone which is found in males in ample quantity resulting strong musculature, deep voice, and greater bone density, and in females testosterone found in negligible quantity resulting from the low level of lean muscle mass, fat gaining tendency, low bone density.

CARDIO RESPIRATORY ENDURANCE Cardiovascular or cardio respiratory….confusion OK, I clear your doubt, Cardiovascular refers to the heart, blood and blood vessels and Cardio respiratory includes heart, lungs, blood and blood vessels. In simple words, Cardio means related to the heart, those activities which can’t complete without hearts contribution. The function of the heart is to supply blood to the working muscles (voluntary & involuntary) and vital organs of the body even at the time of rest-----Circulatory system of the body.

Respiratory means related to the lungs, those activities which can’t complete without lungs contribution. The function of the lungs is to mix oxygen into the deoxygenated blood and make it oxygenated blood-----Respiratory system of the body.

Endurance means the ability of the heart, lungs and blood vessels to deliver the adequate amount of oxygen and nutrients to the cell and working muscles during prolonged physical activity without fatigue.

After about 3 hours without eating, blood sugar level begins to fall from its normal range and after 4 hours, body has digested whatever we eat earlier and after 5 hours body goes into starvation mode and symptoms are a headache, mood changes, fatigue, dizziness, blurry vision, confusion, dilated pupil, tremor, lack of concentration, nervousness, fast heartbeat and feeling anxious and at the same time simultaneously body’s storing mode switch is on, in this condition whatever we eat good or bad a new conflict arises in the body between to convert food into energy or to store for future starvation, in this situation a very limited food converts into energy instead of complete food and a big part of food stores into fat cells and we notice that we over consume foodstuff in this situation, so never starve your body, that is why breakfast is so important after 7-8 hours of sleep without food and eat small frequent meals throughout the day for steady supply of nutrients to your brain and …

MUSCULOSKELETAL STRENGTH Musculoskeletal system which is made by joining two systems of human body (1)Muscular System (Muscles, Tendon and Fascia) (a)Voluntary Muscles – Skeletal Muscles.

(b)Involuntary Muscles – Smooth Cardiac Muscles. (2)Skeletal System (Bones, Joints, Ligaments, and Cartilage) (a)Axial Skeleton - Skull, Vertebral column, Bony Thorax. (b)Appendicular Skeleton – Upper and Lower Limbs and their girdles. Musculoskeletal strength means how strong you are,” The ability of muscle or group of muscles to apply maximum force or effort to lift heavy load/weight one time (1 RM, Repetition Maximum) without fatigue “and this is anaerobic work. The supreme reason for doing exercise especially resistance exercise is to make our self-fit, free from diseases, attractive and for increasing our quality of life and lifespan. To many research in the world indicates and advocate the profound impact of weight training on human being (for both genders) as a…
